Went another
exhibition, on some weird overload week, where my photography snoot exhibition
arms got well and truly over used.
August Sander was some
German photographer who documented German society, including a few snaps of
Nazi’s, and guys with monicles. The images were reprints from the original
negatives, it was really good to be around, the images were insane, so old and
the diversity in the subjects was incredible. I don’t really know much on
photography, but I loved it. Germans are funny as well.
Runs from 29th
September - 6th of
January, for free o course.
Sander created hundreds of photographic portraits
in his attempt to document contemporary German society. His detached
observational style, and his inclusion of images of society’s outcasts
alongside its success stories, reflected his professed aim ‘to see things as
they are and not as they should or could be’.

Don’t really know if that’s
right, but it’s a nice effort by me I reckon.
